BEST OF FALL and BEST OF WINTER - #bestofjarvie 2018 project

in bestofjarvie •  6 years ago 

In the fall of 2018 I spent a month on a mountain during fall colors... I have a few more shots for another post but right now these ones focus mostly on the fall colors. Then only about a month or so later I was with my friend at his ski mountain taking pictures of the first big snowfall.

DIRECTIVE: Keep 1, Kill 1 (from each section)

  • Meaning which ones you think should end up in my online portfolio?

NARROWING DOWN TOP IMAGES

Out of thousands ... I have narrowed it down to about 100 landscape/travel images now comes the fun part.
For over a decade I have made it fun for friends and followers.

  • They get to voice their opinion, hone their photo skills through comparative analysis
  • We all get to see what kind of art appeals to people
  • And I get to share some images and figure out a top 25 and a top 10

Here's the ones I'm already considering making it to the next round: https://steempeak.com/bestofjarvie/@jarvie/10-top-images-of-2018-introduction-to-bestofjarvie-selection-process


WHAT YOU CAN DO?

A. Voice your opinion.
B. Specially which images you'd put into my official portfolio.
Aka "I think someone would actually buy this and put it on their wall"
C. There will be a specific directive at the end of each post.

"KEEP OR KILL"

I haven't been consistent with every year... for example I may do 2017 after i finish with 2018. Haha

But this has always been known as "Keep or Kill"

Meaning I'll put similar pictures next to eachother and you say which ones should advance and which ones not.
Keep or kill... because we like alliteration. haha

What I like about this style is that we're not saying that one picture is terrible or not... we're just saying that the others far outshined it.

Keep 3 and 4. I know it’s keep 1 kill 1. I’m breaking the rules and keeping 2.

Keep 9. Kill 8.

It just seems unfair to #1-#6 to be grouped with the rest! That said Kill #5, maybe cuz its relatively typical (to me having grown up in Upstate NY). #2 looks like a painting. #6 with the tree colors is my keep runner up (if possible, would like to see it less cropped on top if it can). #9 is a Keeper given the birds-eye perspective, the greens of the pines trying to push though the snow, and the cool tones from sun and shade.

Nr3 and 9 would be my choices. Those yellow leaves with the tree running through the image simply stunning and the light in nr9 is simply amazing and does add another dimension to this shot!

They are all beautiful but I would keep 2,3,9 and 10, they stand out the most and make me do a double (or triple) take.

Thanks for the input I appreciate it. You're awesome

Keep 2, 3, 9 and 10. Kill 1. Your fall colours are amazing! I love that time of year in Canada
